The financings under the repurchase agreements with two of the counterparties with an aggregate outstanding balance of $335.7 million as of September 30, 2023 are subject to margin calls to the extent the market value of the collateral falls below specified levels and repurchase may be accelerated upon an event of default under the repurchase agreements.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company's repurchase agreements contain various covenants, including among other things, the maintenance of certain amounts of liquidity and total stockholders' equity as defined in the respective agreements. The Company is in compliance with such covenants as of September 30, 2023 and through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
